Does a person stop taking required classes after their sophomore year in college?
I was wondering if college allows you to explore classes within your degree field or is it just required classes you need to take. #college #career-choice #classes #requirements #career-exploration

Depending on the school you have to take require classes because it's apart of the school's curriculum

It depends on the school, but typically there are a range of classes within required areas to choose from. You will also have opportunities to take elective classes so you can explore other interests. Good luck!

Hi Belen B. I see that you posted this question a little while ago so I hope my answer to you (or others who may read this response) is still helpful.
Adding to the feedback that the answer to your question depends on the school, my experience as an engineering student, was that for my first four semesters of college, there were a core set of math and physics classes that were required. Even in this space though, I had some space in my scheduling that allowed me to take some electives....that is classes that I was interested in but weren't required for my engineering path. Once I began junior year, I began to take classes that were deeper in the slice of engineering that was my focus. Consider as well, that some schools may ask students to meet credit/class requirements that can be satisfied by specific electives, for example a language course or a writing course.
Hope you find this answer helpful. Best of luck to you!
